I wanted to push Opus 5.5 to its limits in terms of animation, so I tried something pretty ambitious: an influencer-style explainer that feels like someone sitting beside you, sketching as they talk.
This is a lot more intimate and personal then you see most stuff people create with opus. The videos are purposley stripped down and avoid computer graphics.
See the final result. Definitely not a one prompt reuslt. Tried several approaches to get something passable and most fell flat. The final version combines code and video generation: opus built the drawing animation, seedance 2.5's hand movements to refine its timing, then seedance again for a realistic looking hand.
plan on re-visiting again after models improve.
